While some area officials were making decisions on more taxes, Angola Mayor Richard Hickman was making an official proclamation in honor of June Julian on Tuesday.

Angola Mayor Dick Hickman made a proclamation Tuesday morning making Tuesday June Julien Day in Angola.

Julien is the executive director of the Steuben County Tourism Bureau. City Officials told WLKI news they wanted people to know all of the wonderful things she does that go beyond her job, but more so her dedication to the community over the years.

The proclamation came as a surprise to Julien, who celebrated her birthday Tuesday.
